Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 1204 Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}18/ML.6.6.40. BLUEPRINTS. This is to confirm that you will appoint three or four of your detail draughtsmen to work on the cabinets on the EBs. EWs. DBs. DWs. GBs. GWs. FBs.{F. Bell-Scott} FWs. The proposal is to use as many of the Experimental blueprints as possible to fill in the shortages in these cabinets and then get out a list of missing drawings. Mattinson will then supply these missing drawings, which will enable us to have a complete set of detail prints for our use at the Clan Foundry. The cabinets will not be moved until the Print Store which is being constructed is complete. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
